Yat Ming No. 1608! Chinese knock-off Jeep from my childhood. Most sentimental possession by far.

Those grays are the bomb. And in the inexpensive category, Desert Khaki on the Subaru Crosstrek! Surprisingly nice in real life.

Excellent Jalopnik everyone. Today is won.

What’s interesting is that the weight of the spare helps keep the truck level.

Agreed. Also:

Same! Now you can modify, tune and simulate driving like that in BeamNG Drive.

x3 Yes! I spent many hours looking out the window and visualizing how various cars and motorcycles would fair being driven at speed on the side of the hwy.

There’s a saying about that. Something about rubber, the road and where they meet. It’s supposed to mean “really important”. I dunno, seems a little old-fashioned...

Then be glad! You can easily check speed ratings of tires. They’re molded into the sidewall.

Optimism aside, the terrifying thing is that Goodyear simply raised the tires’ speed rating from 65 to 75 mph with the newer speed limits. Up until that point, it seemed like mostly user error.

Forgive me. You know it’s always the answer.

Preach

Right on. We had this and Jane’s World Aircraft Recognition handbook. It would be awesome if Jalopnik made recognition guides!

Favourite childhood book. I read this cover to cover more than any other book in my life so far.
